Hello,  
I am making school project and I want to configure IRC5 as PROFINET device to communicate with Siemens S7-1200 PLC.  
I configured IRC5 according to Application manual PROFINET Controller/Device  
(Document id: 3HAC065546-001Revision K)  
IRC 5 has option 888-3, robotware version is 6.13.01  
I imported GSD file named GSDML-V2.33-ABB-Robotics-Robot-Device-20180814 from robot controller into TIA portal V15.  
In I/O engineering tool I have set IP, mask, name and 64 bytes for input and output.  
I did the same in TIA portal.  
But I just can’t get connection to work and something caught my eye.  
I/O engineering tool says that software version for PN Internal device is V1.2  
But in device catalogue in TIA portal I have option Basic 1.4 and Energy 1.4  
Is it possible, that difference in versions is the reason for TIA portal not communicating with IRC5?  
Why is I/O engineering tool showing version 1.2 but GSD file says version 1.4?

If your robot controller is running basic 1.2 you have the wrong GSDML file if it’s suggesting 1.4.  
It won’t work.  
If I remember correctly the date on the basic 1.2 gsdml was 2017 something.  
If you have a real controller you can get the gsdml file from the robot ftp.  
_system_/Product/Robotware/Utility/Fieldbus I think the directory is.
